ABOUT ME

Passionate microbiologist at KU Leuven, fascinated by the extreme capability of bacteria to adapt and survive. Specifically interested in how bacteria circumvent antibiotic killing.

 

A want-to-know-it-all in a more broader context with a special relation to and interest in maintaining the work-life balance. Recently also started a real-life evolution experiment with the birth of our first daughter!
